CNN's Erickson Asks If "Atlanta Need[s] Its Own Version Of Katrina To Get Its Schools Fixed"

In a January 18 post on Twitter, CNN's Erick Erickson linked to an Associated Press article titled "Atlanta public school system put on probation" and asked "Does Atlanta need its own version of Katrina to get its schools fixed?" From Erickson's Twitter feed:

Right-wing media outlets are parroting the attacks of an anti-LGBTQ hate group on Connecticut’s openly gay comptroller, Kevin Lembo. Lembo recently sent the American Family Association (AFA) a letter asking the group to submit written documentation certifying it complies with the nondiscrimination regulations governing the Connecticut State Employee Campaign for Charitable Giving (CSEC), which allows Connecticut State employees to contribute to qualifying non-profit charities through payroll deductions. Lembo’s office has since been “flooded” with emails and phone calls from AFA supporters.
